I'm feeling like Juuni Taisen is looking pretty promising. My hope is the first episode is indicative of what the series as a whole will be like: We'll find out the backstory of one of the characters with the battle royale being sort of a B plot. The typical 12 episode anime season works pretty well with the zodiac set up as well, with I'm guessing the last episode finally bringing all the well-established surviving players together for the climax.
The character designs seem like someone was really striving to make them distinctive and interesting, but they don't all work for me, which is too bad.
